Former New York Giants star linebacker Lawrence Taylor was arrested in Florida on a sex offer-related charge on Wednesday. His lawyer maintained his innocence.
Pro Football Hall of Famer Lawrence Taylor turned himself in to a Florida jail on Wednesday and was hit with a sex offender charge over an incident from earlier this month, court records showed. Taylor was charged with sex offender fail to comply with law – a third-degree felony – on an incident in Broward County on July 2.
Sports first reported Taylor’s trouble with the law. The 65-year-old former New York Giants star linebacker was released from jail early Thursday. 'My client, Lawrence Taylor, will be pleading ‘Not Guilty’ to the recent charges,' Taylor’s attorney, Mark English, told TMZ. 'As with the previous incident involving the same allegations, Mr. Taylor did not knowingly commit any criminal offense. 'This situation is a significant misunderstanding.
Taylor, 65, played for the Giants from 1981 to 1993. Follow Fox News Digital’s sports coverage on X and subscribe to the Fox News Sports Huddle newsletter.
